研究目的
Investigating the ultrafast optical switching capabilities of a nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM) over the entire C-band for error-free demultiplexing of 320 Gbaud OTDM signals.
研究成果
The NOLM demonstrated ultrafast optical switching with a gate width of 650 fs over the full C-band, enabling error-free demultiplexing of 320 Gbaud DQPSK signals. This technology has potential applications in ultrafast optical networks and signal processing.
研究不足
The shorter wavelength suffers from a larger power penalty due to OSNR degradation caused by lower gain of the EDFA.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The experiment utilized a NOLM with a 20-m dispersion-flattened highly nonlinear fiber (HNLF) for ultrafast optical switching.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A 320 Gbaud DQPSK signal was generated and demultiplexed to 40 Gbaud.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Included a tunable laser diode, optical comb generator, IQ modulator, EDFA, pulse shaper, and a 40 GHz mode-locked fiber laser (MLFL).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The signal was shaped into a Nyquist pulse, demultiplexed using the NOLM, and then demodulated.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
BER measurements were conducted to evaluate performance.
